upgrading that package from -r3 to r4 now gives : tfoerste@n22 ~ $ xxdiff xxdiff: error while loading shared libraries: libkdeui.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory reason is : tfoerste@n22 ~ $ ldd `which xxdiff` | grep 'not found' libkdeui.so.4 => not found libkio.so.4 => not found libkdecore.so.4 => not found Furthermore amarok don't want to play music, I get a popup window with this msg : Amarok could not find any sound-engine plugins. Amarok is now updating the KDE configuration database. Please wait a couple of minutes, then restart Amarok. If this does not help, it is likely that Amarok is installed under the wrong prefix, please fix your installation using: $ cd /path/to/amarok/source-code/ $ su -c "make uninstall" $ ./configure --prefix=`kde-config --prefix` && su -c "make install" $ kbuildsycoca $ amarok More information can be found in the README file.

FWIW in addition digikam prints a lot of warnings related to kipi & plugins, downgrading to -r3 and restarting kdm solves all observed issues.
Error seems to be in /etc/env.d/45kdepaths-3.5 I replace line "LDPATH=usr/kde/3.5/lib:" by "LDPATH=/usr/kde/3.5/lib" All OK. Please fix ebuild.
BTW, is "/usr/kde/3.5/sbin" in ROOTPATH necessary ?
This bug also breaks kaffeine-0.8.7-r1.
This version broke my whole kde-3.5 desktop. My K-menu was nearly empty and most kde-apps stopped working...
I've added a patched kdelibs-3.5.10-r4 in kde-crazy overlay. The LDPATH issue should be fixed and (-kdeprefix) KDE4 apps should show up in KDE3's menu with (KDE4) in their names and launch properly.
Should be fixed with -r5. Please reopen if issue is still persistent. Thankies
reopened wrt to http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?p=5729750#5729750
according to the forums thread, the bug is fixed, you just need to reemerge some kde3 apps with the new eclasses if they cause problem, although i am revbumping them
